Site Background
The 34-acre site is surrounded on the north, east, and south by the Spokane River.
Cleanup
Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments were conducted from 2014 to 2016. During these investigations, diesel- and oil-range petroleum hydrocarbons, lead, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and methylene chloride were found in the soil at levels requiring cleanup.
In 2016, Copper River Apartments, LLC, applied to the Voluntary Cleanup Program and submitted a Cleanup Action Plan. Construction and cleanup activities started in fall 2016. Contaminated soil was excavated and disposed at a landfill. Remaining contaminated soil is covered to prevent human contact.
Periodic reviews
Ecology visited the site April 12, 2023, for the first periodic review. The cap appears to be in good condition, with no signs of excavation, erosion, or other damage. There were some construction material stockpiles, illegally disposed garbage, and other debris. However, the cap is still functioning as intended.
Voluntary Cleanup Program
This site was cleaned up under our Voluntary Cleanup Program, which provides technical help to owners of contaminated sites.
Voluntary Cleanup Program customers pay fees to cover our costs for technical help and reviewing cleanup reports. Sites in this program must meet the same cleanup standards as the sites Ecology manages under legal orders.
Site use restrictions called institutional controls are in effect
Institutional controls can be fences, signs, or restrictions on how the property is used. For instance, an institutional control may prohibit installing drinking water wells or disturbing a protective cap that isolates contamination. These restrictions keep the contamination contained and keep people from being exposed to the contamination. The controls are usually listed in environmental covenants recorded with the county.
Periodic reviews are required when institutional controls are required at a site. Ecology conducts reviews to make sure the controls remain effective and the cleanup still protects human health and the environment. We conduct periodic reviews about every five years.
